A great track from Chester P’s New Mic Order Part 2. This one sees a message of encouragement to today’s youth. The world is big, unfair and sometimes shitty, but your life is what you make of it. The track also contains a message…
VERSE 1:
- So little man take your little friend’s hand
- Push it high in the sky show the world that you’re free now
- Little man, run come follow me now
- Little man, run come follow me now
- In the city where the summer is a grey cloud
- In a breakdown, hate drowned and it’s fate bound
- All we do is stay down on the same ground
- In the gutter when the world is our playground
- Little man, your world’s bigger than a staircase
- Bigger than the slums in the whole welfare state
- And little man don’t wade in the crime wave
- There’s a world outside of the mind state
- And little man don’t think like time waits
- Time takes, leaves you with a blind hate
- And it’s true that life is a black hole
- But there’s more than the cats and the crack holes
- And there’s more than the job and the mortgage
- Car and the dog, wife and the four kids
- There’s a whole new ground to be walked on
- Out of the bounds in the dark with a torch on
- There’s a world full of hate that’ll crush you
- There’s a world full of life, full of love too
- And little man, all I know about the street thing:
- You’re in the street
- Ain’t you that the street’s in
CHORUS:
- Running free
- Let me run beneath the sun
- Let me be
- Jungle child
- Running wild
- X2
VERSE 2:
- Yo this is for the children man
- We gotta secure something for these children
- It’s like they’re tomorrow’s premonition
- You understand?
- It’s like they’re tomorrow
- We have to stop ignoring their needs man
- Yesterday won’t work today man, you understand me?
- So little man take your little friend’s hand
- Push it high in the sky show the world that you’re free now
- Little man, run come follow me now
- Little man, run come follow me now
- In the city where there’s nothing but street life
- Kids keep knives and they never see seaside
- Some of them are knee high in the street
- Like bears in a beehive none of them’ll sleep tight
- Little man, the world’s bigger than a few blocks
- Bigger than the new creps, bigger than a few shots
- Little man, it’s a life full of hard times
- But there’s more than the stars and the car crime
- And you’re right, in the hood it ain’t all good
- But in the world little man it ain’t all ‘hood
- I’m tryin’ a tell you there’s a life you can live well
- And little man, you’re right on the big scale
- You’re never free but the world is a big jail
- As opposed to a 12 by 6 cell
- And little man I know your mind stays shot now
- For the money, nothing’s funny so you cut clowns
- There’s a world full of hate that’ll crush you
- There’s a world full of life, full of love too
- And little man, all I know about the street thing:
- You’re in the street
- Ain’t you that the street’s in
CHORUS:
- Running free
- Let me run beneath the sun
- Let me be
- Jungle child
- Running wild
- X2
OUTRO:
- Yo little man
- Oy I’m talking to you man
- Let me just remind you
- Don’t take everything too serious ya know?
- You can’t always go with the grain
- You can’t always go against it
- Everything’s what it is man
- Love is the key to find yourself amongst this darkness you know
- The world is what you make it
- Your mind state is what controls things
- And little man, don’t forget
- Your my favourite little man out there ya know?
